Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 13/09/2026It was the 1900s. Concert tickets were $16.50. I was 15 and went home with a poster I would display in my first college dorm. I swear this should act as some sort of AARP card for elder millennials - coffee and discounts kind of thing. 030
Reposted by Erin Ryan Hey ♿️Grant Lorrell @grantlorrell.blacksky.app · 12/09/2026A challenge for legacy-press is that they plainly sympathize with the reactionary grievances of the GOP (their eager amplification of "CRT" attacks demonstrated that), but can't be seen openly co-signing them. So they launder those attacks through "Just Asking Questions" moral panic coverage. 1399

Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 12/09/2026“You can pick up a shirt from a rack, drag it onto yourself to try it on or rearrange the display as naturally as you would in a physical store.” ai promotional stuff is so funny bc if you think about that sentence, that’s actually NOT a natural thing to do in a store. And it’s on the front page! 000
Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 12/09/2026Ohh haha no! I was using the collective “we” because I feel a connection / bond to disabled organizers from the past. I was in kindergarten when the ADA was passed. 210

Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 12/09/2026In Massachusetts, when MAiD was being considered by the Supreme Court, 19 Disability Rights Organizations filed an amicus brief that clearly and convincingly makes the case that laws of this nature are inherently ableist. I share the brief in full every chance I get. dredf.org/wp-content/u...dredf.org 49150
Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 12/09/2026OK, I looked it up and there *were* some great takedowns at the time. We still shouldn’t have let it invade grocery stores for the next decade though. 031
Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 12/09/2026We never got angry enough about John Mayer’s 2006 “Waiting on the World to Change.” He’s literally walking by the empty spaces left by the twin towers in the video. It’s like the opposite of an anthem or protest song. It’s a spineless message of complacency over a literally stolen melody. 120

Reposted by Erin Ryan Hey ♿️Ethel Weapon @lousadzak.bsky.social · 06/09/2026This is the kind of thinking that in the UK led to transphobic opinions being deemed first “worthy of respect”, then rapidly normalized across the media and politics, then finally used as a justification for trans people’s rights being decimated in healthcare, court proceedings, and ubiquitously. 1509
Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 01/09/2026It’s a beautiful rainy day to vote for Ed Markey! Sending love to ALL the campaign staff and volunteers on progressive campaigns who practice the relentless optimism inherent in trying to make a better world 💙. 020
Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 24/08/2026I think Moulton is most MA primary voters 3rd choice - many Dems would’ve preferred Markey pass the torch to a progressive (Pressley). But if that is not gonna happen, they still vote Markey *despite* his age (2nd choice). Moulton wants voters to elect him *because* of age. #mapoli 040
Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 23/08/2026Of course! I think I remember you from the other website 😊. Glad to hear your kiddo had a good experience - it was such a special group / experience. 010

Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 27/07/2026Today I’m 15 years alcohol free. I never had a rock bottom, and I didn’t drink every day. But when I did drink, I didn’t have an off switch. Tried moderation - and it worked! 9 times out of 10, I could moderate. I finally decided it wasn’t worth playing with that 1 time, and I was right ☺️ #sober 191

Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 03/07/2026In case you had any doubt how Seth Moulton feels about the backlash to his throwing trans kids under the bus. He repeats that he should be “allowed to have a conversation” about contentious issues. That’s fine, but human rights should not be a contentious issue. Trans rights are human rights 🏳️⚧️ 071
Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Peter Singer was the original debate me bro. He was obsessed with getting disabled scholar Harriet McBryde Johnson to admit that her life was not worth living. Assisted dying has always been a right wing project.

Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Citizens United was actually the name of the film company trying to get networks to play their anti-Hillary documentary near Election Day.

Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 01/07/2026I’m sorry 😣. I was lucky to be able to testify against physician assisted death at the hearing in my state. I hope this brief can help in the debate. 010

Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Yeppp and this is why 19 disability rights organizations wrote a very useful Amicus brief when the issue was raised in the MA Supreme Court back in 2023. The court kicked it over to the legislature, who I hope will not take it up. Nothing about us without us. dredf.org/wp-content/u...dredf.org 040

Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 30/06/2026When you understand the vulnerability, the stress, and the danger of being a trans kid … that almost half of them try to commit suicide? You think we're going to punish those kids? We're going to cut them off from team sports, from participating in the community, from fun? It’s like, No we're not. 000
Erin Ryan Hey ♿️ @erinryanhey.bsky.social · 30/06/2026What the heck is wrong with this person? Seth, “I don’t want trans kids playing on the same field as my daughter but I’m not supposed to say that” Moulton himself. I feel like I’m gonna throw up. It’s such obvious political posturing. But he never took back his comments, and we remember. 052
